From The Economist print edition
Protests over the republication of
cartoons of Muhammad
, which
originally appeared in a Danish newspaper last September, spread across
the Muslim world. Danish embassies were attacked and burnt in several
capitals, and some countries initiated a boycott of Danish goods. At least
ten people have been killed, most of them in Afghanistan when police
fired into a crowd trying to storm a Norwegian base. Many newspapers
around Europe defiantly chose to publish the cartoons yet again, in the
name of free speech.

In a sign of growing religious tensions, an Italian Roman Catholic priest
was shot dead in
Turkey
. The alleged killer shouted “Allah is great” and
later claimed to have been provoked by the newspaper publication of
cartoons of Muhammad.
See article
The
Italian
parliament passed a tough new anti-drugs law that treats marijuana as severely as
cocaine and heroin. The centre-left opposition protested and promised to repeal the law if they win
the election in April.
Slovakia's
coalition government fell when one of its parties quit after the prime minister, Mikulas
Dzurinda, dropped a plan to push through a treaty with the Vatican. Mr Dzurinda promptly
advanced the next election from September to June.
A stumble at the first step
Four people were killed during chaotic scenes at a few polling stations during a presidential
election aimed at providing
Haiti
with democratic stability. Otherwise, the election organised with
UN support passed off peacefully.

A presidential election in
Costa Rica
went to a manual recount. After an electronic count of 88%
of the votes, Óscar Arias, a social democrat former president, had 40.5%. His unexpectedly strong
challenger, Ottón Solís, had just 3,250 fewer votes. Mr Solís is a critic of some aspects of a free-
trade deal with America that Mr Arias wants to ratify.
Venezuela's
president, Hugo Chávez, expelled the United States' naval attaché in Caracas for
spying, prompting the Bush administration to send home the number two at the Venezuelan
embassy in Washington, DC. Mr Chávez said he would seek arms in Russia and China.
See article
Mexican
officials were investigating whether a Sheraton Hotel in Mexico City had broken the law
by bowing to pressure from the United States in evicting a visiting Cuban delegation that was due
to meet a group of American businessmen. America said the hotel, owned by an American
company, had broken its embargo against trading with Cuba.
